Do you want to succeed at the elite level of triathlon?

Whether you are at Otago Polytechnic, University or in year 13 in Dunedin, this two year programme is designed to put you on the pathway to achieving your triathlon aspirations.

Working alongside your current coach, or purely with our experienced staff we will provide a support network to develop you as a complete athlete whilst you complete your academic study.

The programme will provide elite level coaching, physical conditioning sessions, nutrition and mental skills workshops seminars and access to further top sports science and medical support.

After completing the two years in the academy you will receive a Certificate in High Performance (Level 5) to recognise your development of basic high performance skills.  Your training will also still be supported by the recognised staff and the group of athletes around you, but in a separate context.
